Combs, reporting for MTV News, asked O’Reilly about the importance of voting.

“This presidential race is going to be [very close]. It's going to be like a basketball game that's tied in overtime,” O’Reilly replied. “Who's going to make the last shot? Your vote could be the one. So vote.”

When asked about the role of hip-hop culture in this year’s election, O’Reilly responded that it could have a positive impact, though he was concerned about the “glorification of bad behavior.”

“But I like hip-hop,” O’Reilly maintained. “I'm hopping all the time, man.”
